Notice the rotating political ad on the left margin? If Mitt started


Posted: Oct 13, 2012

In case it's not there when you look, a political group asks us to donate to Romney for "Recovery, not dependency." 

In case you never see it, maybe you haven't been profiled for it to rotate for you. Click on the tiny arrow at the right top of whichever ad is there. It'll take you to an "opt-out" page to opt out of BEHAVIORAL advertising. Behavioral means feeding ads to us based on analysis of our own internet viewing choices.

Google and other search engines do this too. The BIG PROBLEM is that they feed us only what we seem to like. Not whatever new information is available, but only the stuff that fits our profile. 

Thus, none of us these days will get the same hits on the same search terms. Dems, pubs, malcontents, hard righters, Presbyterian gardening nuts, military buffs, tree huggers, etc., are all fed stuff that fits our preconceptions. 

Truth be damed.

and that's why it's best to do your own research instead of - backwards typist

letting other people, 'ads', or what-have-you do it for you.

CSpan is one of the best places to get info from because it's mostly videos of the Senate and the House debating, fighting, and sometimes even passing bills.

Thomas Law is good if you can figure out what they're really saying in the bills. Gotta understand legaleaze and/or have a good grasp of long-winded verbiage.

There are other sites, too, but it's up to you to do it yourself.

Thomas Library-that's Thomas Law Library - Truthhurts

Another problem with TLL is that they don't post anything until a day after they debate or vote on a bill.

I agree with watching C-Span videos but you should also watch LIVE C-Span. It's like watching SNL some days. LOL

Latest Political Buzz Words From The Left...Jun 15, 2014
I don't know who initially coined them, but you all have certainly canned them ad nauseam lately. Someone on the right (1) being an echo chamber and (2) living in an alternate universe. There may be more. I just can't think of them all right now.

Dreaming Of MittApr 22, 2012
Last night I dreamt that Mitt (Mr. Etch-a-Sketch) was trying to "make time" with me.  I got so po'd that I smacked him with my fist.  He thought I would be flattered by the attention he was paying me so I would vote for him.  (No, he does not relate well to middle-class women, obviously, not in real life or in dreams).   I sure I hope I make it to 2013! The last election cycle I had a recurring dream that Sarah Palin and I were driving around.  She was driving ...

Those of us with intelligence know that you were speaking about not getting votes from the freeloaders.  We know exactly what you meant, and every word was true.  If you start apologizing, you remind me of the Apologizer-in-Chief who is an embarrassment.  You said what you meant, don't apologize for it.  ...

Over the last two years, Congressional Republicans have forced a 43 percent reduction in the primary FEMA grants that pay for disaster preparedness. Representatives Paul Ryan, Eric Cantor and other House Republicans have repeatedly tried to refuse FEMA’s budget requests when disasters are more expensive than predicted, or have demanded that other valuable programs be cut to pay for them. The Ryan budget, which Mr. Romney praised as “an excellent piece of work,” would result in severe cutba ...

Why Does Mitt Think His Attacks On Obama WillAug 16, 2012
He’d have us believe that underneath his cool, calm, and collected manner, President Obama is a bitter, divisive, hateful man, bursting at the seams with anger, a desperate attack dog, full of animosity, and willing to say anything to get elected….the underlying tone being he is not at all what he appears to be.  Meanwhile, the President was stumping in Iowa, complimenting (not criticizing) the locals on the joys of their fairgrounds junk food fare, joking around with his wife ...

Its not about school lunches or healthy kids.  Its about one thing alone...control.

Mitt's Doublespeak On 2 Classes Of Working VsApr 15, 2012
Naturally, this breaks down along the lines of socioeconomic class, i.e. wealthy moms vs welfare moms.  Here we have a CSPAN video from January 2012 where Romney is touting what sounds like his plan for privatizing unemployment.  This is a scheme where folks would contribute money while they are working to an "unemployment account," thus eliminating the current requirement for employers to do so and transferring that MANDATE onto workers, in addition to tax and SS payche ...

Poll: Americans Say We'd Be Better Off If Mitt Romney Won In 2012Jul 03, 2014
While Obama beat Romney by 4 percentage points, voters say a do-over in the 2012 election wouldn't be a bad thing. "Would Mitt (Romney) have been a better fit? More voters in hindsight say yes," Malloy said. Overall, 45 percent of voters say America would be better off if the White House went to the Republicans in 2012, compared to 38 percent who said we'd be worse off. And because it's World UFO Day, a 2012 survey indicated 65 percent of Americans think Barack Obama would be b ...
